The Koala Brothers is a stop-motion animated Australian children's television series, created by David Johnson. It features the adventures of two twin koala brothers named Frank and Buster, who pilot an aeroplane as they seek to help their friends in a sleepy town in the Australian outback. The series was narrated by Jonathan Coleman. 78 episodes were produced over three seasons, alongside one Christmas special.

Notably, while the series sometimes features disagreements and displays of poor behaviour, it avoids presenting any characters as purely villainous or unlikable. Instead, it emphasises the importance of kindness and friendship.

The series originally premiered on CBeebies on 1 September 2003 to October 31, 2007 and is particularly targeted at children from ages 2 to 6 years.
